Description

All of the specimens placed in the genus Anaulacomera Stål, 1873 in the collection of the Muséum d'histoire naturelle de Genève had been on a long-term loan since the 1960s. The recent return of this loan allowed the identification of potential type specimens of eleven species. These are listed, the label data is given and the condition of the specimens summarised.
